Dramatic moment two cars narrowly miss cafe-goers as they veer onto pavement

  • last week
This is the dramatic moment two cars crashed onto a pavement just metres away from cafe customers who were sitting outside.

The CCTV footage from Simple Food and Coffee in Buckhurst, Essex, shows the cars, thought to be a silver Mercedes B-Class and a red Jaguar, veering onto the pavement.

Frightened customers can be seen jumping up from their seats in the outside dining area as the cars crashed with some running to help the drivers.

Essex Police confirmed it was called to reports of a multi-vehicle collision in Queens Road, Buckhurst, at 1.25pm on Monday (August 19) but no-one was hurt.

A video taken of the aftermath by cafe manager Serhat Ayaz shows paving slabs had been uprooted from the ground and another car had been smashed into.
